Wrestling GM 2026 - Beta 1.1.6 Release Notes

Beta 1.1.6 is now live

Rumble Feed, booking freedom, and a federation that feels alive

Beta 1.1.6 is rolling out for Wrestling GM 2026.

This update starts building one of the most requested features for the game — the Rumble Feed — while also opening up booking, adding gender-specific championships, launching in-game Patreon linking, and pushing performance forward across the board.

As always, Wrestling GM 2026 from Just Keep Gaming stays player-first: no forced ads and no pay-to-win mechanics.

What Beta 1.1.6 focuses on

The focus of this release is bringing your wrestling universe to life. The new Rumble Feed gives your federation a voice — fans, wrestlers, Dirt Sheets, and AI Federations all react to what's happening in your world. Alongside that, we've loosened restrictions in booking so you can finally book the show you want, added Patreon support directly inside the game, and continued to chip away at load and save times so the moment-to-moment feel keeps getting smoother.

Rumble Feed — your universe, talking back

We've started building the Rumble Feed, an in-game social media system designed to bring your universe to life. It's early days, but the foundation is already in the game.

• Started work on the Rumble Feed feature
• Rumble Feed is an in-game social media system designed to bring the player's universe to life
• Dirt Sheets, fans, wrestlers, and AI Federations can post and react to events
• Added core rules limiting posts per week so the feed stays meaningful
• Added dynamic fan comments through different fan profiles and avatars
• Added at least two message variations for each message type
• Added more varied responses and tighter rules for fan messages
• Added AI Federation messages
• Added 56 fan accounts
• Added Rumble Feed posts based on community suggestions
• Added the option for the player to post in-game social media updates
• Player posts can impact relationships with wrestlers or AI Federations

Why this matters

Booking a great show is one thing — seeing your roster, your rivals, and your fans react to it is another. Rumble Feed makes wins feel bigger, controversies feel hotter, and your decisions feel like they actually land somewhere.

Gameplay and booking

We've taken a hard look at booking restrictions and opened things up where players asked for more control.

• Removed the restriction where a wrestler could only be booked once per show
• Wrestlers can now be used an unlimited number of times in a show
• Added sorts and filters for player selection during Match Creation steps
• Added gender specification for championships:
  • Male only
  • Female only
  • Intergender
• Added the option to enable or disable intergender matches in "Save My Day" booking offers
• Added the option to save preferences for AI Booking custom rules
• Fixed weekly shows not being cancellable
• Fixed number of seasons displayed on Main Dashboard from 52 to 48, to match the game's 4-weeks-per-month logic

Why this matters

You shouldn't have to fight the game to book the story you want. Whether that's a wrestler returning later in the night, a women's-only title scene, or an AI Booking preset you can lock in once and reuse — this release is about giving the booking team chair back to you.

Rivalries

• Rivalries now allow players to convert Secondary Tensions into a Main Rivalry

This is a small change with a big impact: those slow-burn feuds you've been building in the background can now be promoted into the headline story when the moment is right.

Patreon

Patreon support is now live in-game, with perks flowing straight into your account.

• Patreon account linking is now live in-game with instant data refresh
• Added Patreon tier perk handling for Create-a-Wrestler credits
• All Patreon tiers now receive a 20% discount
• Champion tier receives 1 free Create-a-Wrestler credit per month
• Legend tier receives 2 free Create-a-Wrestler credits per month

If you support the game on Patreon, you can now link your account directly from the game and your perks apply immediately — no waiting, no manual codes.

Performance

Save and load performance was a big focus this cycle, especially for long-running careers.

• Fixed an issue where loading a save while online could sometimes cause a 3–4 second delay
• Conducted performance testing on saving and loading
• Added tweaks to speed up save and load processes, especially for larger saves
• Improved cold start launch times by approximately 40%
• Added further build and startup improvements
• Saving a 3-year-old game is now 17% faster
• Saving and loading wrestler data is now 19% faster
• Saving AI Federation details is now 14.7% faster
• Further optimisations are planned

Why this matters

The longer your career runs, the more your save has to carry — championships, rivalries, AI Federations, contracts, history. These improvements keep deep saves feeling as fast as a fresh one.
